Nick Kyrgios, who will play alongside Osaka at the rebooted US Open mixed doubles event next month, is watching on with Osaka’s team, and will be impressed with what he’s seen so far.Osaka, the ultimate hard-court specialist who’s finally found her feet on grass, is attempting to reach the fourth round for the first time in her career. I’d love for her to have a deep run here; the former US and Australian Open champion has been so hard on herself for not quite hitting the heights since returning to tennis after the birth of her daughter, Shai, who turned two on Wednesday. Osaka opens with a comfortable hold, and then breaks to 15 when Pavlyuchenkova, the 34-year-old Russian who reached the French Open final in 2021, opens serve with an error-strewn game. It’s 2-0 to Osaka. Continue reading...

57 h. ago Carlos Alcaraz shakes off Tarvet from his back without inhibitions or regrets | Jonathan Liew

Defending champion is essentially a magic-eye puzzle you can read any way you want but has the inconsistency all but one of his rivals would dream ofThere were negatives, of course. Shall we focus on the negatives? Shall we dwell on the frailties a little? The uncharacteristic errors, the double faults, an occasional scruffiness at the net, the frequent slumps in intensity? Shall we marvel at the fact that the lowest-ranked player in the tournament earned more break points (11) than one of the greatest players of his generation (10)? Shall we warn, in a tone of affected sternness, that the defending champion will have to raise his game on this evidence?Of course we shall, because this is Carlos Alcaraz, and because there is an entire cottage industry built around maintaining the idea that Alcaraz is in a state of crisis at all times, a state of crisis so acute that it is necessary to feign round-the-clock concern for him. We just want to see all that rich talent fulfilled. That’s al...
